13 INSPECTIONS AND TESTS GENERAL REQUIREMENTS The Dubai Electricity & Water Authority (DEWA) reserves the right to nominate

Inspectors/Inspection Agencies to inspect and carry out necessary tests and/or measurements, at any stage of the manufacture and to reject all or any part of the equipment/materials not in accordance with the technical specifications as described in the Contractor's offer. In the event that an inspection is necessary then an inspection Certificate issued by DEWA's nominated Inspectors/Inspection Agencies should accompany the documents while applying for payment. If, for any reason, the inspection is waived then DEWA's letter/telex/fax conforming such waiver should accompany the documents.

For the purpose of Inspection, the Contractor shall accord the DEWA's authorised

Inspectors/Inspection Agencies access to all parts of the factory concerned with the manufacture of the equipment/materials and shall provide DEWA's authorised Inspectors/Inspection Agencies with such inspection facilities, testing apparatus and services as may reasonably be required.

For inspection involving tests and facilities outside normal working procedure of

the Contractor or for tests which cannot be conducted in the Contractors manufacturing premises, the Contractor shall highlight and notify the same in his offer.

Should any re-inspection of the equipment/materials be required due to failure

of the Contractor to provide the equipment/materials according to the specification, or should there be any additional involvement of the inspectors due to equipment being not offered for inspection as per contractual delivery schedule, then any charges/costs of such re-inspection or additional involvement will have to be borne by the Contractor.

1.2.1.0.0.01-Rev.04

7 of 13

Equipment/materials once rejected shall not be considered as having been delivered under the Contract and the Contractor shall within the appropriate time for delivery provided by the Contract or such further time DEWA may allow deliver at Contractor's expenses satisfactory equipment/materials in replacement of the rejected equipment/materials.

DEWA reserves the right to reject the equipment/materials or any part thereof after

acceptance if it found not to conform to the Contract specification by reason of some defect latent or otherwise of materials or workmanship which was not discoverable after a reasonable examination of the equipment/materials.

All the relevant drawings, specification and other such details as required as per

Contract shall be sent to the DEWA at sufficiently early date to enable DEWA Engineers and/or their authorised Inspectors to become fully acquainted with the equipment/materials prior to the inspection and/or testing within the time stipulated in the Contract.

The Contractor shall ensure that DEWA/DEWA's authorised

Inspector/Inspection Agencies shall have the same inspection rights in respect of any Sub-contractor as the DEWA/DEWA's authorised Inspection/inspection Agency has in respect of Contractor. Not Less than twenty one (21) days notice of all tests shall be given to DEWA and DEWA's authorised inspectors in order that they may be present if they so desire . As many tests as, in the opinion of DEWA are possible, shall be arranged together. Four copies of the Contractor's records of all tests shall be furnished to DEWA. The inspection call shall be issued in the format attached in this specification (Annexure-A).

All materials which are specified for tests at the Manufacturer's works shall

satisfactorily pass such tests before painted/shipment. All instruments used for the purpose of testing shall be approved and if required

shall be calibrated at the expense of the Contractor by such body as may be approved.

Where type tests are specified, such tests shall be carried out in the presence of

DEWA's representative or alternatively if the inspection is waived by the Purchaser, the Contractor shall provide certificates from a recognized International testing authority showing that such tests have been carried out satisfactorily on apparatus similar to that being supplied.

Where routine tests are specified, these will be witnessed by our

Inspector/Authorised Inspection Agency on Complete Quantity of material included in the order.

The procedure and criteria for all the tests programmed for factory acceptance test

and test schedule shall be submitted to DEWA by the Contractor at the time of submission of drawings.

14 PACKING OF MATERIALS

1.2.1.0.0.01-Rev.04

8 of 13

Packing shall be such that it affords adequate protection to the enclosed materials against mechanical damage during transport to its final destination and transition from one to another.

Containers shall be of the fully enclosed weatherproof type (i.e. metal sides and

roof) unless the size of plant to be shipped necessitates otherwise, in which case the type of container and method of shipping shall be subject to approval.

For non-container shipments packings shall be stout close-boarded wooden cases

of adequate thickness, suitably braced and banded and lined internally with water-resistant material.

Certain types of outdoor equipment may be crated, provided that adequate

protection of vulnerable parts is assured. All pipe flanges shall be fitted with wooden covers not less than 40 mm larger in diameter than the flange which shall be wired or bolted to the pipe. Steelwork sections and similar items may be bundled provided that the ends are adequately protected and the enclosing bands or wires are robust.

For full container shipments, a degree of crating may still be required depending

on the type of equipment involved and the Contractor shall state his intentions and obtain approval.

Adequate battens and braces shall be provided to prevent movement of equipment

within the container. Where appropriate due to the weight or nature of the equipment pallet type bases shall be provided to assist in loading and off-loading.

Indoor electrical equipment, whether shipped in containers or packing cases,

must be enclosed in welded polythene envelopes inside the packing cases. The envelopes should be sealed and have sufficient desiccant inside to absorb the initial moisture content plus an allowance for leakage.

When in cases or crates or containers, all items shall be so secured that they

are not free to move and cannot work loose in transport. If rotating parts are shipped within their bearings or mountings they must be adequately braced and restrained to prevent relative movement. Bags of loose items shall be placed in a supplementary case, each bag having stitched on to it a metal label indicating the number and nature of its contents. Where a filler material is used in a case to restrict movement or provide additional protection it must be inorganic and non-hygroscopic.

All surfaces liable to corrosion shall be thoroughly cleaned and special steps,

adapted to the nature of the materials and the time interval between packing and unpacking, shall be taken to prevent corrosion. These steps may constitute the greasing of surfaces, the application of a protective coat, enclosure of the items in a hermetically sealed container, consisting of paper, cellophane, plastic or zinc, the addition of vapour phase inhibitor paper to the package, or other approved means.

Steps shall be taken to ensure that insulated materials cannot be damaged by

moisture, moulds, insects or rodents. Items that include materials liable to be

1.2.1.0.0.01-Rev.04

9 of 13

damaged by moisture shall be packed in hermetically sealed containers in which silica gel, or some other approved dehydrant, has been inserted.

Cases shall be marked both with large lettering to show which side up the case is

to be, and, if the contents are fragile, marked "FRAGILE" in large letters and the international wine glass symbol. In the case of container shipments individual crates or equipment on pallets shall also indicate any special handling or movement requirements or weight limitations. Packages shall be marked with their place of destination in such a way that rough handling or the effect of weather cannot remove or obliterate the marking. Each separate package shall be marked with the gross weight and for all lifts over two tones marks on the cases or equipment shall show where the weight is bearing and the correct positions for the slings.

The cases shall, whenever possible, be so packed that they can safely be placed

any side uppermost and no reliance shall be placed on the ability of those who will handle the case to read written instructions or to understand pictorial ones. Cases that have to be slung in a certain way shall, as far as possible, be so constructed that they cannot conveniently be slung in any other way and packages shall preferably be so large that they cannot be easily rolled over or thrown about; thus when practicable small cases shall be crated together to form one larger unit. Crates shall be sufficiently strong to be capable of being slung from the outside even when provision is also made for slings to be attached direct to a major article inside.

Special steps shall be taken to guard against theft during transport. No small

items, such as padlocks, nameplates and so forth, which could be torn off or unscrewed, shall be accessible.

Cases, crates, barrels and drums shall be banded in such a manner as to obstruct

the theft of any of the timber used for packaging, and the bands shall be so secured that they are not rendered ineffective by shrinkage of the wood.

A descriptive and fully itemised list shall be prepared of the contents of each

packing case or container. A copy of this list shall be placed in a waterproof envelope under a metal or other suitable plate securely fastened to the outside of one end of the case or container and its position adequately indicated by stenciling. Where appropriate drawings showing the erection marking of the items concerned shall be placed inside the case or with the equipment in the container.

All stenciled markings on cases and crates, or other markings on descriptive metal

tabs fixed to cable drums, bundles of structural steelwork and so forth, shall be applied in two places with a material which cannot wash off and shall be additional to any erection or other marks or impressions which may be specified elsewhere.

All packing cases, and material including cable drums shall remain the property of DEWA.
